more problems... sound

Archived from groups: alt.games.battlefield1942 (More info?)

afte getting the game installed.. finally!

I am getting sound problems now

whenever i fire a machine gun the sound just gets stuck in a loop and
doesn't stop

some sounds dont appear to be working at all

is this a bad sound.rfa file? if i was to obtain a copy of this file and
copy it to the directory it is in would it solve the problem?

I have installed the 1.6.19 patch never played the game until i had that
installed, It did error out once when instaling that... I am currently re
downloading it and am going to try and re install it to see if it makes a
difference, I also have the small 1.6b patch i will ty that afterwards.

does anyone have any other suggestions as to what may be causing this and
how to solve it?
